> A NullPointerException arises when running the rad goal against a project containing a manifest that has no Class-Path element.  The exception is caught and the only error on the screen is "No <project-path>\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF file found".  The problem is in the RadManifestWriter.orderClasspath() method.  It needs to check newValue for null before trying to split it up.
> Here's the manifest I had that caused the problem:
> {code}
> Manifest-Version: 1.0
> Build-Jdk: 1.4.2
> Built-By: Michael Johns
> Created-By: Apache Maven
> {code}
> Notice that it has no Class-Path element.
